Improving the Accuracy and Safety of Allergy Documentation Through a Standardized Recording System: A Quality Improvement Project at Atbara Teaching Hospital
Introducing a structured allergy documentation sticker significantly improved the quality and completeness of allergy recording in a paper-based hospital setting. The intervention was low-cost, sustainable, and adaptable, aligning with global patient safety priorities. Regular audits, continued education, and progressive digital integration are recommended to sustain these improvements.
